pair them with another $2,000 in traction mods and you should start to get close

FWIW I have a set of M/T ET Streets on a spare pair of 17" wheels and I like them A LOT. I also see and hear great things about the Nitto 555r's.

I don't know how I would rate a BFG KDW as a drag tire - I run them as my street tires. Grabby as hell, but you might want to look for the BFG g-force T/A drag radial. Unfortunately, though, I'm afraid you might have to step up to a 225/45/r17 on a 17" rim to fit them in your wheel wells - unless you can fit a 255/50/r16. I have heard excellent things about the g-force T/A, though - and they still have that neato tread pattern the KDW2's have.

255/50/16 fit fine. but i didn't find any of the T/A radials in that size. and the reason i put the KDWs on there is BECAUSE they're grabby as hell. but find me a link to a nice sized t/a radial and i'll put it up there

discofreak

They have the g-force T/A drag radial in a 255/50/16 listed here - you should be able to get it anywhere that sells the tires.



And the KDW's aren't NEARLY as grabby as a drag radial, trust me on this. They'll bite hard in corners but if you push them they'll spin just like any other street tire - they are sticky, though.

wow really good info exsoccor. its nice to see some people on this site that actually want to help other people.

Also I was looking at throwing a set of d/r's on a set of stock 18's but after a while of searching couldn't find anything that I thought would fit in the wheel well. does anybody know of any drag radials that will fit?

man this is old. i need to update this a little. there are soooo many tires we can use

Mazdaboi318

anyone selling some??

yellowltcoupe22

What sizes can be used on the stock 18's of the sssc

EXsoccer1921

iTrader: (14)

i honestly wouldn't bother putting a radial on a wheel bigger than 16"

Mazdaboi318

any confirmed to fit the TC?

anyone have some used ones

i understand that a 16" radial will do much better at the track than an 18" but I don't drive my car everyday so the wear on them i'm not worried about and it would be nice to have some extra grip for the occasional street race without really showing it with 16's

then just search around for a radial that'l fit a 7" wide wheel. and it won't be in like a 26/10.5/16 type of readout. it'll be in like a 245/40/18 type of read out.

don't go by the sized i just said, i was using those as examples
